Muhammad Umair
Building where maps meet mobile.
I engineer iOS systems and real-time location experiences from equitable meetup routing to daemon-level background tracking. Precision is the product.

Core Expertise
Location intelligence, engineered precisely.
I specialise in the full stack of location-aware mobile engineering: spatial algorithms, BLE proximity, and the iOS system APIs that power real-world navigation.
Spatial Algorithms
A*, BFS/DFS, equitable meeting-point calculation, and proximity clustering for real-world location problems.
Live ETA Systems
Real-time arrival prediction, group coordination pipelines, and low-latency spatial updates via CoreLocation and MapKit.
iOS Location Systems
Background execution, silent push, geofencing, indoor positioning, and daemon-style location services on iOS.
BLE & Proximity
CoreBluetooth, iBeacon ranging, RSSI-based positioning, and proximity-triggered location handoff for indoor navigation.
Group Coordination
Multi-user real-time sync, equitable routing logic, and group meetup coordination with live state sharing.
Cross-Platform Systems
.NET MAUI, C#, SignalR, and Azure AD B2C for enterprise-grade mobile apps on iOS and Android.
About
Precision where it matters most.
I'm a mobile software engineer with a deep focus on location intelligence and iOS system engineering. I work at the intersection where spatial algorithms meet production-grade mobile architecture.
From BLE proximity detection to real-time group ETA coordination and daemon-level background location services, I build the infrastructure that makes location-aware apps feel instant, fair, and reliable.
Based in Lisbon, Portugal, I work with clients and teams internationally on high-precision mobile systems where correctness is not optional.
